“…The formula for complexity metric is useful as one of the components needed to simulate the growth of an enterprise architecture that is ultimately used to determine the configuration of information systems based on the business architecture complexity. The business process model complexity metric is also useful for getting the number of resources needed to run a business process [17].…”

The business process model is a representation of business activities illustrated through diagram notations. This model is composed of repeated specific patterns called basic control structure. Each basic control structure has a level of complexity. The metrics for formulating existing complexity are very diverse, but can only define complexity partially and are less sensitive to small changes in the structure of the business process model. In this paper, we propose a formula of complexity metric that can indicate small changes in structure, type of branching logic, number of branches, loops, and depth. We call it the Yaqin complexity formula. To get the Yaqin complexity formula, we carried out several activities. These activities are identifying the metrics involved using the Goal-Question-Metric (GQM) method, then formulating the metric complexity, the next activity is testing the formula with several business process models and analyzing the test results, and then validating the Yaqin complexity formula using the Weyuker's properties framework. The Yaqin complexity formula, which involves seven parameters, is proven to be more comprehensive than other complexity formulas that involve less than seven parameters. The Yaqin complexity formula also proved to be more sensitive to other complexity formulas, where 7 out of 8 cases affected the Yaqin complexity metric. The validation results state that the Yaqin complexity formula meets 8 of 9 Weyuker's properties. Thus we have succeeded in formulating the Yaqin complexity, which is more comprehensive in involving parameters and more sensitive in detecting small changes in the structure of the business process model.

Business process complexity is an important factor that affects process quality and has a significant impact on the maintenance, optimization, and execution efficiency of processes. To review the application progress and trends of process complexity measurement in business process management, this study uses the systematic literature review (SLR) method to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the theoretical background, rationality, effectiveness, and comprehensiveness of 92 process complexity metrics. The findings showed that the measurement of process complexity primarily encompasses four dimensions: activity complexity, control-flow complexity, data-flow complexity, and resource complexity. However, most metrics consider only one or two aspects of complexity in the process and rely mainly on empirical validation, thus lacking theoretical validation support. Currently, the most popular and widely used complexity metric is Control Flow Complexity (CFC). Process complexity metrics mainly focus on measuring the complexity of process models, and the majority of them focus on activity complexity or control-flow complexity. The future research trend is to combine data mining techniques with process log data to analyze process complexity.INDEX TERMS Business process, complexity measurement, systematic literature review.
